DONOR OF POETRY BOOK ROOM PRESENTS IT WITH DESK SET

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harry Harkness Flaggler of New York City has just presented the Harvard Poetry Room, in the Widener Library with a bronze desk set, specially made and engraved with the name of the room, which he built and endowed in the memory of G. E. Woodberry '77, and in which he has shown continued interest.

He has also donated an antique inkwell and an ivory pen-knife, both relies of Woodberry. These he originally presented to his poet friend many years ago. The latter, in his turn, handed them down to his nephew, C. D. Woodberry '99, who has returned them, by way of Mr. Flaggler, to the Woodberry collection in the Library.
